We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Frequency Converters", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Meter tests bus networks from Fluke (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "The Fluke 125 Industrial ScopeMeter is capable of a Bus Health Test for industrial bus networks, harmonics analysis and power measurements". Earlier in the week, we featured the news release Machine tool company offers training from Yaskawa Engineering Europe: "Yaskawa Engineering Europe (EEU) is offering its customers training for every Yaskawa machine tool product, as well as all Yaskawa Mechatronic products such as servo drives and frequency converters".
 
In January 2007, we covered the news from Carlo Gavazzi concerning its MPF series photo-eye sensor system - take a look at Photo sensors meet automatic door laws which says: "Carlo Gavazzi's photo sensor solutions help customers comply with the new safety laws covering automatic doors and gates".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Safety Network International eV, The SafetyBUS p Club International at Hanover 2005, as well as Compact I/O system is easy to expand from Siemens Automation and Drives, and Danfoss drives integrate SafetyBUS p interface from Safety Network International eV.
